In this paper, we address computational questions surrounding the enumeration of non-isomorphic Andr\'e planes for any prime power order. We are particularly focused on providing a complete enumeration of all such planes for relatively…

A classical theorem of Forster asserts that a finite module $M$ of rank $\leq n$ over a Noetherian ring of Krull dimension $d$ can be generated by $n + d$ elements. We prove a generalization of this result, with "module" replaced by…

Non-linear recurrences which generate integers in a surprising way have been studied by many people. Typically people study recurrences that are linear in the highest order term. In this paper I consider what happens when the recurrence is…

Let $(G_n(x))_{n=0}^\infty$ be a $d$-th order linear recurrence sequence having polynomial characteristic roots, one of which has degree strictly greater than the others. Moreover, let $m\geq 2$ be a given integer. We ask for…

For $m \geq 3$, we define the $m$th order pyramidal number by \[ \mathrm{Pyr}_m(x) = \frac{1}{6} x(x+1)((m-2)x+5-m). \] In a previous paper, written by the first-, second-, and fourth-named authors, all solutions to the equation…

We define a variant of the Miller-Rabin primality test, which is in between Miller-Rabin and Fermat in terms of strength. We show that this test has infinitely many "Carmichael" numbers. We show that the test can also be thought of as a…

The higher order matching problem is the problem of determining whether a term is an instance of another in the simply typed $\lambda$-calculus, i.e. to solve the equation a = b where a and b are simply typed $\lambda$-terms and b is…

We give a deterministic algorithm that, given a composite number $N$ and a target order $D \ge N^{1/6}$, runs in time $D^{1/2+o(1)}$ and finds either an element $a \in \mathbb{Z}_N^*$ of multiplicative order at least $D$, or a nontrivial…

A \emph{composition} is a sequence of positive integers, called \emph{parts}, having a fixed sum. By an \emph{$m$-congruence succession}, we will mean a pair of adjacent parts $x$ and $y$ within a composition such that $x\equiv y(\text{mod}…

We study the set of monomial ideals in a polynomial ring as an ordered set, with the ordering given by reverse inclusion. We give a short proof of the fact that every antichain of monomial ideals is finite. Then we investigate ordinal…

Combinatorial number system represents a non-negative natural numbers as sum of binomial coefficients. This paper presents an induction proof that there exists unique representation of every non-negative natural number $m$ as sum of $r$…

We define a class of higher inductive types that can be constructed in the category of sets under the assumptions of Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory without the axiom of choice or the existence of uncountable regular cardinals. This class…

Cantor gave in his fundamental article an elegant proof of the countability of real algebraic numbers based on a positive integer height, denoted by him as N, of integer and irreducible polynomials of given degree (denoted by him as n) with…

A new kind of numbers called Hyper Space Complex Numbers and its algebras are defined and proved. It is with good properties as the classic Complex Numbers, such as expressed in coordinates, triangular and exponent forms and following the…

Let m>=1 be an arbitrary fixed integer and let N_m(x) count the number of odd integers u<=x such that the order of 2 modulo u is not divisible by m. In case m is prime estimates for N_m(x) were given by H. Mueller that were subsequently…

We show that Morley's theorem on the number of countable models of a countable first-order theory becomes an undecidable statement when extended to second-order logic. More generally, we calculate the number of equivalence classes of…

Let $\Gamma$ be a centerless irreducible higher rank arithmetic lattice in characteristic zero. We prove that if $\Gamma$ is either non-uniform or is uniform of orthogonal type and dimension at least 9, then $\Gamma$ is bi-interpretable…

A composite number $n$ is called Lehmer when $\phi(n) | n - 1$, where $\phi$ is the Euler totient function. In 1932, D.~H.~Lehmer conjectured that there are no composite Lehmer numbers and showed that Lehmer numbers must be odd and…

The set of prime numbers has been analyzed, based on their algebraic and arithmetical structure. Here by obtaining a sort of linear formula for the set of prime numbers, they are redefined and identified; under a systematic procedure it has…

In this article, we introduce and study a new integer sequence referred to as the higher order Mersenne sequence. The proposed sequence is analogous to the higher order Fibonacci numbers and closely associated with the Mersenne numbers.…
